Rinry did the most well edited videos of the early 2010s. This stuff is just amazing.

[@BlinksAwakening]

I don't typically say things like this but I really do love this youtuber's voice, I find it both very captivating and honestly she sounds cute :)

[@thefinisher6303]

"Strongth" needs to be a real word.

[@GuitarOfTime0116]

i still say strongth.

[@skylius]

Hot take I'd love to hear from renry again, such great nostalgia and soothing voice with cool and interesting things about old games even I didn't know about

[@BladeXFiresword]

I, love, your, voice.

LOFR!

[@kewlbuttons1824]

Saw this in my suggestions and got excited, until I saw it was seven years old. Come back!

[@redmercer4158]

My single favorite translation screw-up is in the original Final Fantasy Tactics where they somehow managed to change every instance of "Breath" in the skills list to "Bracelet", leading Marlboros to hit you with "Bad Bracelet"

[@rhaeven]

Back for my yearly rewatch of this whole channel. Good nostalgia and sad nostalgia

[@Scribblerjohnny]

I was led to believe that Error was a mistranslation of Errol. Learn something new every day.

The thumbnail image for this video looks strangely familiar to me...

[@hardwirecars]

what?! no all of your bases are belong to us?!!!?

[@DraconDWanderer]

So many memories revisited.... and still I will enjoy them... maybe even more now... Thanks for the clarification

[@ztoxtube]

When I rented Mega Man 2, there was a boss called Clash Man. The copy I owned had Crash Man. Also, Dr. Right became Dr. Light. I was so confused.

[@stevenharrison3740]

Cant believe 'all your base are belong to us' wasn't on there

[@MrKluey76]

The way Rinry reads the ending for Ghosts and Goblins is one of the best things I've heard, ever. I can't get enough of this video, the whole thing cracks me up!

[@opadrip]

I feel strongth welling in my body

[@humbertesque]

The cuteness of your voice is almost overwhelming, and I find myself having to pause the video often.

[@artdragons]

Game over return of ganon "Oh god the time line complexity goes on!"

[@AlchemiconSilver]

DON'T get me started on Skyward Sword... that game has THREE possible ends. Normal Ending: Beat Demise in the Present Past Ending: Beat Demise in the Past (preventing Normal Ending) Demise Ending: Be defeated on your quest to stop Demise.

[@SolidusGabriel]

Your videos were always so good, Rinry! I hope one day you return to make more of them.

[@zappmann877]

"What a polite young man she was..."

[@ScrufEnough]

Good to see you making videos again! And man, I was paying attention to all the little details and effects and things you added to this video, and I can't imagine how long it takes you to put these things together. They are great!

[@worldofjake2012]

I must say, your voice is very cute! ^-^

[@MaceEtiquette]

It's not often I find videos this long that keep my attention the whole time. Well done!

[@TheGenericNerd]

It's ironic that Sega is a Japanese company with a name that originates from English: SEGA = [SE]rvice [GA]mes But Atari is an American company whose name originates from Japanese terminology from the board game, Go.

[@alexriesenbeck]

Your videos are absolutely the greatest. I rarely watch a video more than three or four times; yours are the exception. :) love from Michigan

[@sumbodyshero]

We miss you, girl.

I hate that I've only found this channel now that's it's defunct. Meanwhile AVGN and his unique brand of "humour" is still going strong...

[@8BitCR]

Yup, i need to hug a puppy after this video

[@DJLunarSouth]

a shame I've found this channel years too late

[@Sinn0100]

I just found this channel?! It is so chocked full of truly great information. Plus this us pure audible chocolate.

The funniest translation errors are in the pirated Vietnamese Pokémon game.

[@lo12la100]

YES EVERYONE "STOP NOT PLAY (quote: Fantasticaneer)"

[@Mistertbones]

Bag or Fuck?

[@RobbedPierre]

OMG! I really thought that was a real quest in Chrono Trigger! 20 years later I learn the truth....

[@101Topcat]

Did you ever notice that the title screen for Metroid says: "Emergency Order: Defeat the metroid of the planet Zebeth and destroy the Mother Brain the mechanical life vein". ^ Shouldn't that read: "Defeat the metroids of the planet Zebes and destroy Mother Brain the mechanical life vein"? (What does "mechanical life vein" mean, anyway? I'm confused...)

[@ag2023en]

It probably means that mother brain is the methaphorical/literal "life/energy source" of the enemies in the game.

[@dooplon5083]

the reason it was probably called Zebeth at first was because in Japanese there is no soft "th" sound like in "thorn" so they go with an "s" sound as the closest approximation, but when a translator is reading Japanese text they probably had to gess wether is was an actual "s" the original writers meant or the non-existent "th". For the record, it's ぜーベス in Japan iirc.

[@Babbleplay]

These are wonderful videos, I only had to watch 2 (Well, 1 and halfway into this one) to decide I want more. You gained a new subscriber, hooray!

[@josephpeterson99]

"Ganon" isn't a translation error.

[@ding968]

winner is you!

Bear Burns but that comment is an illusion devisug by satan! Go ahead dauntlessly! make rapid progres!

[@josephpeterson99]

[@lieutenantpepper3421]

You feel strongth welling. In your body.

[@RubyIsBored]

ganon is not spelled gannon

[@MegaMrkitten]

No mention of Digimon World Dusk where they got the name mistranslated for Night Crow instead of Night Claw?

[@WyreWizard]

Rinry, you are something I wish more girls were, gamers. My half sister was a gamer when she was young. IDK if she still plays games now. Once when playing Starcraft, I met a woman who was 32 and a mother of 3. I played a game against her and lost. She apologized for beating me. I told her that she didn't need to apologize because she won fair and square. This was when I was 26. I have been beaten by many and won against a few. I am sure some of them were gamer girls, the ones who beat me. I am 42 and a lifelong gamer. I would like to meet a woman who shares in my passion.

[@_Shaugen]

Dear god im cringing so hard right now

[@_Shaugen]

Gamer is not gender specific

[@BacentRekkes]

My mother (56) and I (24) play Tetris Friends against each other, and my older sister (36) plays Halo with her son (12). I also have 2 girls in my Final Fantasy XIV group who have been playing the game as long as I have. Also go see how many girls flock the video game booths at anime conventions. 'Girl Gamer' and 'Gamer' mean the same thing

[@WyreWizard]

Come to think of it, when my mother was alive, she too played Tetris and many Tetris clones and puzzle games. She even played Intelligent Cube on my PS1

[@puubd3370]

***** 46% of gamers are girls.

[@ChosenOneSNK]

Nice to see your smile again, Rinry. Totally worth watch the whole video. ; )

[@rudytreadwell3050]

Hehehe, strongth. I like that word too.

[@JoeFpoc]

the "all your base" video was one of the first internet videos i ever seen. that was right about the time when i got my first computer, i didnt understand it but still thought it was pretty funny. great video as always, always very professionally done

[@bigppenergy5611]

Your base are belong to us !

[@DrayCrouse]

+player guy "Your bases all belong to us !" Not "Your base are belong to us !"

[@bigppenergy5611]

Nvm this comment . I don't even remember writing it

[@LazyTomato]

didn't sega do the same toadstool/peach thing to eggman too? i'm pretty sure they ended up making it so robotnik was his last name but eggman was his nickname...

[@rudytreadwell3050]

Why aren't you voice acting? So cute.

[@1Thunderfire]

I just love those old translation errors. All those memes that they have given birth to and sheer hilarty. Conglaturation!

Awesome, thanks for doing all this research, you're working with high end documentary quality, keep it up! :) Congraduration!

[@chaosgreyblood]

So good to see ya back, Rinry.

[@KabukiRex]

You're AWESOME! I was searching for a video like this long time ago! Justice for japanese games and original names!!

[@OMGCaptRaven]

You got my interest with your nice voice, but damn the whole video was put together really nicely. Awesome work!

[@DanoLefourbe]

I just only discovered this channel (thx to the TGS remag). It's pretty great. I'm subbed. Now going to watch your older stuff.

[@MyGamer79]

Rinry, I love your videos and wish you luck with your new bundle of joy!

[@nightroad2593]

It's been sooo long happy to see she is still making videos! I almost lost hope

[@zediusmelichor1815]

Count me as one of those people who liked Ted Woolsey's work. I really learned to appreciate the work he did after finding out about all fun and interesting changes he injected into various game dialogue. Totally with you on the point of liking Ted's versions of FF6, Chrono Trigger and a few others. Thanks for making this video!

[@scottythegreat1]

How about the poor translation of the opening crawl of Castlevania III: Draculas Curse: "He practiced sorcery in order to create a bad world filled with evil" "Changing countries from good to bad" Not really translation errors, but still worth an honourable mention.

[@nakenmil]

Never would've known about this if not for the TGS podcast! Great stuff! :D

[@StripeRose]

I think I heard somewhere that Gannon is what the japanese called Ganon originally, but that it was translated to Ganon before an English release or something alike.

[@lumenuwu2791]

You missed one of the best mistranslated lines ever "All your base are belong to us"

[@dialgalover282]

Even though you don't make videos anymore you're still my favorite youtuber

[@fusithememe8696]

Beginning was from Legend Of Zelda II: Links awakening in a town when you open a door, this error appears in the house it does nothing apart from saying "I AM ERROR. .

[@LainK1978]

Actually, the name of the game is Zelda II: Adventures of Link. The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening was the name of the first Zelda game to appear on the original Gameboy.

[@lostmybrains]

She did mention it. The game is called Zero Wing and she does briefly mentions it in the video. Just that she didn't quote the line.

[@freedantheeternal]

You know, the thing about Robotnik/Eggman, I'm more attached to Eggman mainly because of Sonic Adventure 2. That was the first game he was officially Eggman in English, and also the first game where he was fairly competent and, dare I say it, kind of cool. The name Robotnik brings back too many memories of the bumbling fat guy that never accomplished anything.

[@vinceandlilly]

I'm pretty sure that Mash was short for Masshu, which is Matthew rendered in japanese phonetics.

[@JazGalaxy]

HUH. That is very interesting.

[@afriend9428]

*OMG! LOL is n’t Happy End what people get a special massage shops?!?* 😂

[@BGDMusic]

i used to watch these videos so much when i was younger

[@Seraphyx]

Lmao, this base will "explod" Love how you said that. Your videos are amazing, glad I found it in the recommended video sections of the TGS podcast since they were stupid and didn't link it in the description.

[@SirenoftheVoid]

i never thought about the memory limits affecting the translation,but now it all makes sense.it was a fun bit of trivia to learn about

[@rollercoastermaniac2]

Dr eggman is his "name" because sonic called him rotten egg man when he beat him, so he got pissed and called himself Dr.Eggman to spite sonic.

[@SuperToastytoast]

I miss you come back

[@AEventyr]

I remember liking the Woosley-isms because it was what I grew up on, especially with FFVI which is my favorite nostalgia game. Now that I'm older, I only truly miss the Woosley version of the opera scene. But man was it a shock to revisit favorite scenes on Gameboy and have a different translation at times! Thanks for the video.

[@SuperParkourio]

If you're looking for a translation error in Zelda 2, consider the lava-dwelling dragon Volvagia (incorrectly translated as Bulba).

[@njdss4]

Great video! Top notch editing. Must have taken a long time to do!

[@NothingifnotInconsistent]

How did she not mention the great and all mighty "All your base belong to us."

[@BigKlingy]

There were a lot of translation errors in early Pokemon moves, that got kept to maintain compatability. Splash is the main one. Yeah its Japanese name COULD have meant "Splash", but look: it's NOT Water type, and non-water types like Hoppip and Buneary can learn it. That's because it actually shoud have been "Hop". Now does it makes sense why the above two Pokemon learn it? There's also the matter of "Surprise Attack" becoming "Sucker Punch", implying it's a punching move.

[@MissILoveMovies]

Hamster Life for DS has "he cage too small!"

[@sjadarkest]

Wasn't the line about the Empire put in just as a reference to some of Lando's dialogue from Empire Strikes Back?

[@SuperParkourio]

Find this person fast... I think it refers to Queen Zeal, who is "close" to one of your party members. How that side quest resolves is somewhat ambiguous.

[@IAmElectrospecter]

"but to us, his name will always be Bowser" Everyone I knew called him Koopa back in the NES era. I remember finding it weird when people finally started calling him Bowser

[@ZackBenedict]

L and R on the SNES are just left and right. It's a lot harder to mix up an 'H' and 'M' sound.

[@livvy94]

Interestingly, the translator for Chrono Trigger DS actually said that he wanted to read up on Olde English and use it, but he ran out of time before his deadline.

[@burnum]

The whole Robotnik/Eggman thing was explained as Eggman is the grandson and Robotnik is the grandfather.

[@livvy94]

I remember hearing somewhere that "Mash" was actually "Ma-shu," or Matthew.

[@ChristianConspirator]

Dear Rinsey, Thank you for keeping us updated on the fast-changing world of vintage video games, with your lovely voice - the kind of voice that could make a drill sergeant hug a Nazi... before stabbing him. I suggest that you make video of yourself actually playing some games that you love and hate (and for longer than a few seconds) and giving commentary as you play, like a nice contrast of AVGN. You say you're no good at them, but well, video editing makes the world go round sister.

[@IAmElectrospecter]

Also, I just played through Sonic Adventure 2 (and Generations, so I might be getting the two confused) and I believe they call him Dr. Robotnik and Eggman at different times.
